Chapter 2 : The Girl He Loves

LOGAN, MICHAEL, AND CHASE'S ROOM

Why did he do it? That was the question that Logan had kept asking himself. The note was true but why did he actually put it under her door? " I have to write another one. I have to keep up this secret admirer thing till im ready to tell her that it's me. Man I can't believe that it took me this long to realize that I love her. I love Zoey Brooks!" Logan thought to himself as he headed to lunch after he free period.

He was so excited that he was going to see her, even if she didn't look at him, that he didn't even notice when he ran into non other that Zoey herself. "Sorry Logan. I guess I wasn't looking where I was going."

"No, no, it was totally my fault," he managed to get out while fighting to the urge just to kiss her.

"Why were you running so fast anyway Zoey?

"Oh... Well I guess I can tell you," she started, " See some guy put a note under my door this morning. Here you can read it." she handed Logan the note, who pretended to read his own handwriting. Why read it? He wrote it!

"Hey Logan do you recognize the handwriting?" Zoey asked, maybe a bit to eagerly.

"Yeah I think it's Chase's, but I'm not sure. Why don't you ask him?" Logan said, hoping to buy himself some time.

" I hope no," Zoey said hesitantly.

"Really? I always thought you liked him."

"Well I do but not like that. I mean he's like my brother. Besides I like some one else," Zoey said mysteriously hoping Logan never found out that the person she liked was right in front of her.

"Well I got to go. I'm starving, plus I have to tell everyone else about the note." said Zoey running off before he could say anything. Logan just stared at her for a minute before running after her.

"Dana, Nicole, Chase! I read the note!" Zoey shouted at her friends.

"What note?" Chase asked while biting into his pizza.

"The note that was left under her door this morning," Nicole pipped up.

"So what did it say?" all tree asked at the same time.

"Well basically it said that some guy at PCA has a big, huge, enormous crush on me!" Zoey all but screamed, "and.. I ran into Logan on the way here and he looked at the note and told me that it looked like Chase's handwriting!"

"What! I wouldn't write you a love not! I like Dana! Oooops, did I just say that?" Chase said blushing deep red.

"Yes and I'm you did cause I like you back." Dana said blushing as well.

"Well will you go out with me? Be my girlfriend?"

"Of course, but we have to help Zoey first. She has a big problem here. So we will have to wait till Zoey had a boyfriend as well. And Nicole already has Micheal so she's set."

"I can't tell you how much I appreciate this. Hey guys let's invite Logan to sit with us. He looks really lonely over there doing what looks like homework." At saying this Zoey got up and walked over to Logan who had in fact been watching Zoey while writing another note. Because he was writing he didn't notice when Zoey can up to him and sat down. At first she didn't read what he was writing, but finally curiosity won her over, and she read the first line. It was a note of some kind, but when she read who it was to she squeaked just loud enough for Logan to look up. At first they just looked at each other , but Logan had to say something.

"Zoey I..." but he never got to finish because Zoey had already run off. You'd think that a guy could outrun a girl in flip flops, but Zoey was just to fast. She was in her room when the door locked before Logan had even turned the corner.

Logan could hear sobs behind the door , os he didn't even try talking to her. He just got out a sheet of paper and started writing. Before he knew it , it was 4:30. He had finished he short note hours ago, but he was determined to see Zoey. Then something hit him. He had written the note but hadn't put it under her door! Right as he was about to, he hear the door unlock. He opened the door and looked inside. He saw Zoey sitting on her bed waiting for him.

"Just come in and shut the door Logan," Zoey said coldly

"Look you're.."

"No let me talk first," Zoey said, " the reason why I ran away was because I was surprised. I hadn't expected you to be the one who sent me the note. For many reasons. One, you never really talked to me much. Two, you didn't say anything, or even flinch, when I said anything about the note. Three, the last one, simply because I like you back." she said blushing lightly. "I.. The guys that I like usually don't like me back." She stopped there and waited for her words to sink in. Logan just kinda sat there with a dazed look on his face. He opened his mouth to say something, but couldn't get the words out right. All that came out was a mindless dabble.

"Oh great. I profess my love to a guy and all I get is baby talk?" zoey put on a fake pout face and puppy dog eyes and looked at Logan, who had just understood what she had said.

"Yeah, yeah very funny. Now for the sake or formalities I have to ask you one question."

"And what is that?"

"Will you be my girlfriend?" Laughing Zoey grabbed him around the neck and kissed him.

"Does that answer your question?"

"I don't know, maybe one more time, just to make sure." This time he started it, gently leaning her back on the bed, they kissed more passionately. The loving moment was broken up by four people bursting into the room.

"Logan! Zoey! What in the heck were you two doing?" Dana, Nicole, Chase, and Michael said al at once.

"Nothing," they both said, but the look on their faces and the state of their hair was enough to tell a million tales.

"So do you two go out now?" Chase asked while putting he arm around Dana.

"Yup!" Logan said while doing the same with zoey , but also giving her a little peck on the lips.

"Maybe we can all go to the movies tomorrow," Zoey suggested. Everyone agreed. Before leaving Logan had to take one last look at the girl he loved.
